08-09' Blackhawks (46-24-12) 104 PTS - 4th Seed In The West!

[rchap24]

Blackhawks have the 3rd least losses in the NHL. That's pretty awesome.

 

That is a pretty cool statistic

 

I should say regulation losses. We have a crapload of OTLs. That makes it less cool.

 

yeah, but that number doesn't hurt us nearly as much as regulation losses

[jersey cubs fan]

Watching the non-HD TSN feed significantly reduced my enjoyment of this game, but it was still pretty sweet.

True, but those seven OTLs are tough. If they had won even three of those in OT/SO, they would be two points behind Detroit right now with one game in hand.

 

Woulda coulda...

We're only .01 behind the Sharks for No. 1 in the league in GFA, and Kaner is tied for fourth in scoring.

Not to mention their Pythagorean shot through the moon after last night.

wow this a pretty awesome logo

That does look really cool....I wonder how much it costs?

[Brian]

50, I'd only get it if it drops after the game is over

That wouldn't be to bad for like $35

Step right up and get anything you can possibly imagine to commemorate this game!

Not that I blame the NHL. I just think the gloves and pint glasses are a bit silly.

 

I'll probably buy a t-shirt though. I need a new Hawks shirt anyway.

[Cynosure]

I like the gloves and pint glass, gonna probably buy them both actually.

 

Gonna get a hoodie and a puck as well.

 

I'm gonna make a nifty Winter Classic thread maybe when I get home, or I'll wait til Saturday with all information anyone could ask about the event.

 

And if the info isn't there you can ask in the thread and I'll add it.

Blackhawks canceled practice yesterday.... why?

 

To play curling.

 

I love this team... they all show up ready to practice and Q says NOPE, we're doing a team building exercise and sets up curling lines.

 

That's awesome.

It was a show of solidarity with me. I went curling for the first time last night.

It was *hella* fun.

 

Easier and harder than I expected. The whole sliding down the ice thing seems hard, but it's actually quite easy. But you have to maintain really good technique to have any prayer of directing the stone anywhere you might want it to go, and that's pretty tricky.

Probably to get there minds off this weekend

[Cynosure]

I think the Hawks win tonight.

 

Team should be charged up from some light skating and a team building, curling excursion.

 

I think we come out rough and tumble and win 4-2.

 

Toews, Campbell, Sharp score (and someone on the 3rd or 4th line).

 

Assists by Wiz, Kane.

I'm interested in seeing how they come out, and what the coach's reaction will be. If they are incredibly flat, do they blame it on overconfidence from the blowout plus taking it too easy yesterday? This is one of those things where the coach is practically daring them to pull back the reins.

[kujay]

Obviously I'd like to see two wins, but I think their better chance is tomorrow.

 

Vancouver doesn't have that guy that can take a game over. I mean, with Luongo out.

Does Vancouver play tonight? Who knows what Sundin will do in his debut? Canucks are gonna most likely come out with some extra energy if it's his debut.

Article I read this morning said Sundin is still in Sweden and won't join the team until sometime in January.

BTW Anyone down to see Eager get his ass kicked by Phaneuf?
